WEBVTT - Best Bits (Just The Bits) with Morgan: PART 2 0:00:01.440 --> 0:00:05.200 It's the best Bits of the week with Morgan Number two. 0:00:06.480 --> 0:00:09.000 What is of y'all so happy? It's another weekend and 0:00:09.039 --> 0:00:11.480 I got to be hanging out with y'all. Right here, 0:00:11.840 --> 0:00:14.720 this is best bit's just bits, but part one is 0:00:14.760 --> 0:00:16.759 personally my favorite part of getting to do this podcast. 0:00:16.800 --> 0:00:18.440 I get to bring on a show member and talk 0:00:18.480 --> 0:00:20.480 to him about whatever I want to talk to him about, 0:00:20.720 --> 0:00:23.239 and you know, some guidelines, but things that I come 0:00:23.320 --> 0:00:25.119 up with. This weekend, I talked to Amy, and I 0:00:25.160 --> 0:00:27.560 really hope you go listen to it, because not only 0:00:27.760 --> 0:00:31.240 did we discuss the craziest thing that I've seen while driving, 0:00:31.320 --> 0:00:34.280 and this tops the list of pretty much any story 0:00:34.320 --> 0:00:37.920 I've ever heard, we also talked about our stupidest accomplishments 0:00:37.920 --> 0:00:40.680 that we've had recently. And you know, I did get 0:00:40.680 --> 0:00:42.960 a little vulnerable about my dating life and something that 0:00:43.080 --> 0:00:46.080 I have had to learn and it's not been easy 0:00:46.240 --> 0:00:49.240 for me. I'll just say that, And of course some 0:00:49.280 --> 0:00:52.279 fun things with taking text messages out of context. That's 0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:54.760 all I'm gonna say. Yeah, I'll leave that right there, 0:00:54.920 --> 0:00:58.080 But until then, let's get started. I'm so excited to 0:00:58.080 --> 0:01:00.680 bring y'all some of the biggest months from the week. 0:01:01.120 --> 0:01:03.240 Number seven, if you win the super Bowl, each players 0:01:03.280 --> 0:01:06.040 paid one hundred and fifty seven thousand dollars as the winner. Wow, 0:01:06.160 --> 0:01:08.880 and lose the super Bowl, you're paid eighty two thousand dollars. 0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:11.720 That's still good. It's still good. But I'm saying you 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:13.440 want to win the super Bowl, Yeah, that's one hundred 0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:16.920 fifty grand. That's the incentive. So even if you barely play, 0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:18.960 if you're on the team, yeah, if you're one of 0:01:19.000 --> 0:01:22.680 the people who who are on the roster, you get 0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:25.479 paid because you got to stay ready. Yeah. And if 0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:27.320 you stay ready, you never got to get ready. That's right, 0:01:27.400 --> 0:01:29.320 that's right. So number one, number two, a lot of 0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:31.319 different factors when it comes to buying a commercial for 0:01:31.319 --> 0:01:35.440 the Super Bowl. This average price for thirty seconds is 0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:39.280 seven million dollars. And let's not be the ones that 0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:42.720 come on to go moon. The commercials. Sugged commercials haven't 0:01:42.720 --> 0:01:45.319 really been a thing for seven eight years. They do 0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:47.720 try to put better commercials on, but now we're in 0:01:47.760 --> 0:01:49.680 the land of everything's funny everywhere, all the time. Things 0:01:49.680 --> 0:01:53.000 are compelling all the time. TikTok other commercials are funny, 0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:57.520 viral campaigns that it's just it's not like they're going 0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:00.440 to hold off in June. We got this great idea, 0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:03.640 it's gonna go virals hold up for the super Bowl. No, 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:06.200 they do it. Then they do new stuff on the 0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:08.160 Super Bowl, and the commercials are fun. Sometimes they're like, Wow, 0:02:08.160 --> 0:02:10.080 it's funny to get see the celebrity. But let's not 0:02:10.120 --> 0:02:11.760 beat the show that comes on and goes. The commercial suck. 0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:14.679 It's just not that environment anymore. But they do. So 0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:17.160 they're not as good. Yeah, they're not as good. They're 0:02:17.160 --> 0:02:19.880 actually better. But everything else around it all year long 0:02:20.000 --> 0:02:25.720 is better, which makes it seem not as good. Bud Wiser, 0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:31.560 that's tissue holding on to nostalgia. Boy, yeah, that's pretty good. 0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:35.760 The NFL doesn't pay bands or artists for performing at 0:02:35.760 --> 0:02:37.840 the halftime show none. So you do the show, you 0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:42.720 don't get paid. The artists aren't making a dime, but 0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:45.440 they do at least get their expenses and production costs covered. 0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:48.679 But they don't make anything. It's all just for promotion, 0:02:48.960 --> 0:02:51.079 so they do it. The players in the super Bowl 0:02:51.120 --> 0:02:53.119 get fancy cars to drive week of the game. That's 0:02:53.520 --> 0:02:55.600 every player on both teams in the super Bowl gets 0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:58.359 a very fancy loaner drive around all week. Yeah, that's 0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:00.480 a lot of loaners. You're talking about fifty three man 0:03:00.639 --> 0:03:05.240 rosters each. It's one hundred and six cars plus coaches. Yeah, 0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:08.000 like how many of those exotic dealerships are there and 0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:10.200 there are no cars on any lot there? And then 0:03:10.280 --> 0:03:12.760 I'm sure they have rules like you can't drive risky 0:03:12.880 --> 0:03:14.680 the week of the Super Bowl, right, I don't think 0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:19.000 that's in the rule book, no risky driving. A single 0:03:19.040 --> 0:03:22.480 ticket for admission to Super Bowl one between the Chiefs 0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:25.000 and Packers costs six dollars if you wanted to go 0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:27.359 to that game and that game did not sell out. 0:03:27.639 --> 0:03:31.000 The average cost this year is nine thousand dollars. You 0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:32.680 can get them very very low for around four to 0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:35.200 five thousand, and if you want to get one of 0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:38.880 those suites, it's half million bucks. Oh man. And if 0:03:38.920 --> 0:03:41.000 you want to wait till halftime, they say it's around 0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:43.480 two to three thousand bucks. Still, if you want to 0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:45.040 get a ticket from a scalpoar a half time, oh 0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:48.600 well yeah, this is it's the only time where the 0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:52.480 scalpers won't sell last minute because the games starting, because 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:53.920 they know they can pretty much sell all the way 0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:56.920 to a half time that's bananas. And then when it 0:03:56.920 --> 0:04:00.839 comes to the rings, everybody on the winning roster, coaches, executives, 0:04:01.040 --> 0:04:04.520 practice squad players, everybody gets super Bowl ring. The players 0:04:04.520 --> 0:04:08.040 in the practice squad usually get one that's a lesser value, 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:10.600 but it's still a ring. But the owner of the 0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:13.640 teams can also award rings to whomever they choose, meaning 0:04:13.680 --> 0:04:16.720 people that were just instrumental or gave good advice or 0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:19.440 a great fans. Each franchise pays for one hundred and 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:21.800 fifty Super Bowl rings in the league also chips in, 0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:24.800 so it's five six million bucks in rings. That's probably 0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:26.640 something they're happy to pay. And those rings have a 0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:28.680 lot of diamonds. A lot of diamonds are really cool. 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:31.560 The Lombardi Trophy, which you win, weighs seven pounds, but 0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:33.279 if you were to melt it down, it's fifty thousand 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:36.680 dollars worth of material right there. The NFL won't hold 0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:38.760 Super Bowls in cold stadiums now. That'd being said. They 0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:41.360 did play in New York and it got pretty lucky. Yep, 0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:45.800 So that that was the thing until they decided to 0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:47.160 play in New York and everybody's like, what if it's 0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:48.440 a snow Super Bowl. Then it turns out it was 0:04:48.440 --> 0:04:52.080 actually fine. Yeah, but for the most part, it's in 0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:55.599 Florida or Arizona, Arizona this year, or New Orleans. But 0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:57.960 they're a dome. Yeah, Muslim are domes. They try to 0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:00.800 make sure that it's either warm Weather city when I 0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:03.520 went was into Miami or if it's in Indianapolis where 0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:07.000 I went, it was a dome. Each team gets one 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:13.480 hundred and eight footballs. That's it. Practice and play, that's it. 0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:16.120 No more footballs because they've all got to be pre 0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:20.680 screened before because some people deflate them. And they got 0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:22.880 to have that Super Bowl logo on there. Okay, you 0:05:22.920 --> 0:05:26.000 guys want two different directions. Yeah, and then finally more 0:05:26.000 --> 0:05:28.760 than one hundred million people watched Super Bowl every year. Now, 0:05:28.800 --> 0:05:32.880 whenever we get to the Super Bowl halftime shows, can 0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:36.479 you think of a halftime show that had country artists only? 0:05:36.800 --> 0:05:39.760 And has that ever happened? Amy, I cannot think of 0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:42.320 one lunchbox. I'm not a big halftime guy, so I 0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:45.680 don't even remember. No Eddie, not in our lifetime. So 0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:47.679 here are some people who performed at the Super Bowl 0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:52.080 National anthem. Charlie Pride seventy four, Garth Brooks National Anthem 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:54.160 ninety three. That was a controversial one where he's like, 0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:56.680 I'm not singing until you show my music video and 0:05:56.720 --> 0:05:58.120 they're like no, the super Bowl is about to start, 0:05:58.279 --> 0:05:59.919 Like yeah, but I need you to show you know, 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:03.400 we shall we shall be free. Yeah. And so they 0:06:03.440 --> 0:06:05.159 even went to the stands to ask John bon Jovi 0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:07.040 if he'd come out and sing it last minute, and 0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:09.360 then guards are like, no, this video means a lot 0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:11.839 I need. And so they played the video before the 0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:17.520 super Bowl. So baller, that's so ball Here we go 0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:20.239 nineteen ninety four, a halftime show that was all country. 0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:26.400 What it was called? I thought they had I thought 0:06:26.400 --> 0:06:28.760 they had named for it. But we had Clint Black, 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:32.599 Tanya Tucker, Travis Tritt and the Judds. A nineteen ninety 0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:35.920 four all country Super Bowl halftime show. Since then, they 0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:38.560 haven't done that. Jewel has sang the national anthem, Faith Hill, 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:42.440 Shania Twain popped up in at once, Faith Hill, did 0:06:42.480 --> 0:06:45.680 America Beautiful, Carrie Underwood National Anthem, on and on and on. 0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:49.280 But that's the deal. Chris Stapleton will sing it on Sunday, 0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:52.080 the national Anthem, looking forward to it. I don't have 0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:55.480 anything going on specifically, especially or just watch the game 0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:58.440 until I like it. But I haven't. There's no party, 0:06:58.640 --> 0:07:01.840 no gathering you No, I wouldn't. I didn't even know 0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:04.000 if you were going to one.

So no party. 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:12.520 We're gonna definitely gonna have a spread though, wings, pizza, lunchbox. 0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:14.720 I got my options open. I like that.

Number two, 0:08:14.400 --> 0:08:18.520 we found out something super disgusting about Lunchbox. He eats 0:08:19.080 --> 0:08:21.760 while he's on the bathroom toilet, said you, yep, yep, 0:08:21.920 --> 0:08:24.200 I said it. That is exactly what we found out 0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:27.040 about him. Eddie Bobby caught him in the bathroom. He 0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:30.240 was eating a protein bar while in the bathroom. Yes, 0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:33.000 this was a real thing. Like I don't know how, 0:08:33.040 --> 0:08:36.760 I don't know why, but here it is number six, 0:08:37.320 --> 0:08:39.760 Lunchbox eats food in the bathroom while he's going to 0:08:39.800 --> 0:08:47.280 the bathroom. And I know why. Yeah, man, I've happened 0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:49.400 twice now where I walk in the bathroom and I 0:08:49.440 --> 0:08:53.439 can hear the rapping and like the two insane disgusting. 0:08:53.640 --> 0:09:01.440 Sitting on the toilet disgusting. What's the point? Why can't 0:09:01.480 --> 0:09:03.320 you eat not in the bathroom? Well, I mean if 0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:04.839 we only have a limited amount of time, don't have 0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:07.480 limited time. You you're gone for twenty minutes sometimes, but 0:09:07.559 --> 0:09:09.760 I'm hungry man, so I'd be gone for twenty five 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:12.320 Maybe you gotta cut into it. But you don't think 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:16.520 that's disgusting. I'm not sticking in the toilet. What I'm 0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:18.800 not sticking the food in the toilet. You're not dipping it, right, 0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:22.280 I'm not dipping it in the water like water down. 0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:24.200 I just wonder if I'm the only one, like, what 0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:26.840 is explained to me? What could be wrong with that eating? 0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:29.000 You ever hear this saying don't eat where you poop, 0:09:29.920 --> 0:09:33.280 Like there's a real reason. I mean, it just can't 0:09:33.280 --> 0:09:36.520 be healthy. Well, your gross, your your toothbrush is in 0:09:36.559 --> 0:09:39.280 the bathroom. Yeah, but I put the lid down when 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:41.440 I flush, and there's also a door so it doesn't 0:09:41.440 --> 0:09:43.480 the particles don't flush over the top of the toothbrush 0:09:43.520 --> 0:09:47.240 if just one. Yeah, it's also the image of like 0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:50.480 in out. That's a tough one too. Yeah. Well, yeah, 0:09:50.520 --> 0:09:52.480 there's a lot of maybe maybe everybody don't think this 0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:55.760 is great.

Okay, just make it sure. 0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:10.320 It's called multitasking, you guys, turn not a multitasking you 0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:12.400 guys talk about haven't being efficient with your time? We'll 0:10:12.440 --> 0:10:14.599 go what boom, because this is the only way that 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:18.120 you multitask or have any sort of efficiency. One stone? 0:10:18.240 --> 0:10:21.720 Do you do this at home? Yeah? No, two birds, 0:10:21.800 --> 0:10:25.040 one protein bar? Okay, yeah too, that's fine. But that's 0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:27.400 what I'm saying, Like you're hungry, Like, let's say you 0:10:27.400 --> 0:10:28.800 get done working out, Bob, when you got to go 0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:30.959 to the bathroom, you need that protein bar going the bathroom, 0:10:30.960 --> 0:10:32.440 eat it while you're going to the bathroom. No, I 0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:34.920 got to the bathroom, watch my hands, I come out 0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:37.400 and then I eat. Well, I don't Why does it 0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:39.440 always bathroom stuff with him? It's like what Keith Urban 0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:41.040 was washing his hands and he goes into the bathroom 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:42.520 to hang out with him, and he shared the sink 0:10:42.559 --> 0:10:46.240 with they're watching hands. It's a single person sink because 0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:48.360 it's a tiny sink and he puts his hands in 0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:51.520 with Keith Urban. Yeah that was pretty cool. But I'm 0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:53.480 just saying I don't see anything wrong with it. I've 0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:55.280 done it my whole life. You sit on the pot 0:10:55.520 --> 0:11:03.199 and you eat my stomach. P Morgan, Will you put 0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:05.920 this pole up on the website? Yeah? By will You're 0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:10.280 gonna be surprised. Maybe I will be surprised. You wait, 0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:13.680 a miracle will speak. A lot of people don't have time, man, 0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:16.240 but you have time for everything, and you go you 0:11:16.240 --> 0:11:21.360 don't multitask anything that's actually worthy of efficiency. Well, you 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:23.000 just made a noise. It made nothing there. I was 0:11:23.000 --> 0:11:25.160 gonna say facebook chat and do the show, but I'm 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:29.240 in Facebook chatting lately. So it's the best bits of 0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:37.000 the week with Morgan. Number two, we had Ernest stop 0:11:37.040 --> 0:11:38.959 by the studio and it was super fun to hear 0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:41.920 from him. He's so insanely talented in a lot of ways, 0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:44.160 not only as an artist but also as a songwriter. 0:11:44.400 --> 0:11:47.280 He's written songs with Jelly Roll, Kane Brown, of course, 0:11:47.360 --> 0:11:49.840 Morgan Wall and so many more. But he shared some 0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:52.360 of the stories behind those songs that we now know 0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:55.160 as hit songs. So these were the stories behind him 0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:57.000 and he also talked about the deluxe album that he 0:11:57.040 --> 0:12:00.400 has coming up of Flower Shops, and there's thirteen brand 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:03.040 new songs on it, which is wild for a deluxe album. 0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:05.520 Most of the time a deluxe includes like three, maybe 0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:08.480 two new songs, but no, not Ernest. He put out 0:12:08.600 --> 0:12:12.400 thirteen new songs with this deluxe album. So check out 0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:14.960 this interview. You're gonna love it. Ernest.

If you don't know him by his 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:22.280 name his face, you'd know him by a ton of 0:12:22.400 --> 0:12:25.240 number one songs he's written for other people.

I love the way 0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:29.440 it sounds. I like, it was just fun writing those 0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:32.920 songs and looked up six or seven months later and 0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:35.360 had a bunch of them and instead of naming a 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:38.160 new album and doing a whole new thing with similar 0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:40.600 sounding songs and storylines, yeah, I just wanted to do 0:13:40.600 --> 0:13:42.520 a part two thing. I never find even money in 0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:44.400 my pocket. This guy found like twelve new songs for 0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:46.720 a whole album, like I never just find a five. 0:13:46.800 --> 0:13:48.599 And you're like, well, I got twelve or thirteen, So 0:13:50.240 --> 0:13:52.880 two dozen roses. The deluxe versions out today with Ernest 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:54.959 and I just want to give you some sample here 0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:56.679 of what kind of songwriter he is. So you go 0:13:56.760 --> 0:13:58.160 check this out, but he's written a lot of songs 0:13:58.160 --> 0:14:00.000 that you would know and love, which, by the way, 0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:02.520 Jelly Rolls Son of a Center, right, could you play that? 0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:11.680 So Jelly Rolls, you guys are similar in that, you know, 0:14:11.800 --> 0:14:14.679 Jelly roll is the hip hop artist too, but he's 0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:18.400 for real deal country music. Same thing with you. I 0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:21.000 mean you look at you, you're for sure a country yeah, 0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:25.080 but you also can rap. Yeah yeah, Jelly Rolls, you 0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:26.440 know he I looked up to him when I was 0:14:26.480 --> 0:14:29.720 in high school as a rapper in Nashville, and the 0:14:29.760 --> 0:14:31.960 fact that we've been able to go from where we 0:14:32.040 --> 0:14:35.480 came from to having a song on country radio is 0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:38.600 just it's the beauty and the magic in Nashville for sure. 0:14:38.800 --> 0:14:44.720 One Mississippi from Kane Brown. I'm telling you he's so versatile. 0:14:45.040 --> 0:14:47.080 What about you and Kane? This one here? Did you 0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:49.200 get this to Kane or how did this work? Kane? 0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:52.080 Kane had a session with Jesse Frazier and he brought 0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:55.840 in Levan, a guy they just like messaged them, right, yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:14:56.000 --> 0:15:00.480 It was Levan's first right in Nashville, and we wrote 0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:03.200 One Mississippi and I told Lavon I think after that 0:15:03.280 --> 0:15:06.240 day I was like, just know this never happened. You 0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:07.840 don't just come to town to write a number one 0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:10.760 song like that doesn't happen. Ernest is in studio. I 0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:13.680 want to play what have I Got to Lose? Now? 0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:16.360 And I picked? I like, did you pick that? Yeah? 0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:18.160 I did? Thank you? Well, I don't know. I mean, 0:15:18.200 --> 0:15:19.720 I don't I don't know why you would thank me, 0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:21.520 because there something about this song you want to tell me. 0:15:21.840 --> 0:15:23.840 I wrote it with Dean Dilon. It's featuring Dean Dillon 0:15:24.000 --> 0:15:25.560 is super special to me. I love this song. You 0:15:25.600 --> 0:15:26.960 didn't have to say that super fast. You could have 0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:31.720 said it slow right, smoke a cigar and here here 0:15:31.920 --> 0:15:41.200 is what have I got to lose? So when you 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:44.400 talk about Dean Dillon, So I watched Dean Dillon do 0:15:44.880 --> 0:15:47.720 a songwriting session and he was talking about writing songs 0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:50.040 for George Strait and it's gotta be so cool. This 0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:52.520 is like when you say, wow, Dean Dillon, like you're 0:15:52.560 --> 0:15:54.200 writing with a guy who wrote songs for George Straight 0:15:54.240 --> 0:15:56.280 and Toby Keith and all the legends, right yeah. And 0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:58.520 he was telling a story about how George Strait called 0:15:58.600 --> 0:16:03.400 him and said, Dana needs some songs, and Dean Dylon. 0:16:03.440 --> 0:16:06.600 You gotta think of like old western Dean Dalan's got 0:16:06.640 --> 0:16:10.040 long hair, mustache, cowboy hat. I don't know, maybe seventy. 0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:11.720 I don't know. Hold Dean Dylan, is you think he's seventy? 0:16:11.760 --> 0:16:16.520 He's timeless? Okay, timeless, that's all. And Dean Dylan's like, well, 0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:18.960 I got some songs. I got this song called the Chair, 0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:22.280 I got this song. And George's like, just get out here. 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:25.200 And so Dean said, we're picked up, described her crap. 0:16:25.240 --> 0:16:26.800 George said, where are you when you come back? He goes, 0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:28.200 I ain't telling you where I am, and who knows 0:16:28.200 --> 0:16:29.840 if I'll ever come back. Yeah, he said, but we 0:16:29.880 --> 0:16:32.520 got our stuff. We drove out and he said George 0:16:32.560 --> 0:16:34.240 needed some songs. He goes, you know, I didn't like 0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:36.880 funny songs. I don't like funny songs, he said, but 0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:38.440 this has made me a lot of money. And then 0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:43.560 he goes into I got some motion property man. So 0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:46.800 for you to write that, to write with him, that's awesome, dude. Yeah, 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:49.480 that was like a bucket list dream come true to 0:16:49.480 --> 0:16:50.920 get to write with Dean. And so it was a 0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:53.160 shot in the dark to see if he wanted to 0:16:53.160 --> 0:16:55.840 feature on it. Just because I couldn't stop listening to 0:16:55.880 --> 0:16:58.440 the voice note from that day of Dean just picking 0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:01.440 through it. So yeah, I like, would you please sing 0:17:01.480 --> 0:17:03.440 this second verse? And he was honored too, and we've 0:17:03.440 --> 0:17:05.680 become kind of good budds through that, Isn't that What's 0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:09.439 crazy about this world is you have relationships with people 0:17:09.480 --> 0:17:13.160 that you almost get giddy talking about that you even 0:17:13.200 --> 0:17:15.679 know them. Yeah, that's how I mean, Dean Dillon, I 0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:17.679 just went into a story. I just get so excited 0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:20.080 talking about that part of country music. Yeah, like the 0:17:20.240 --> 0:17:23.520 old school that. Yeah, the stuff that I cut my 0:17:23.560 --> 0:17:25.879 teeth on before I even knew who Dean Dylan was. 0:17:26.640 --> 0:17:30.040 So it was kind of like getting star struck all 0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:31.960 over again. And then sitting in there and listening to 0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:35.560 his voice on it. You hear how influential he was 0:17:36.320 --> 0:17:40.600 on George Strait's career vocally, And guys that are cutting 0:17:40.600 --> 0:17:42.480 a Dean Dylan song want to sing it like Dean, 0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:45.880 which is like the ultimate respect as a songwriter because 0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:48.280 they want to do the song it's most justice. Well, 0:17:48.320 --> 0:17:50.600 he doesn't do funny songs, but he don't made a 0:17:50.600 --> 0:17:53.600 whole lot of money on that. Yeah, Okay, Ernest is 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:55.080 here We're gonna come back with him in a second 0:17:55.400 --> 0:17:58.720 two dozen Roses.

But then 0:18:04.920 --> 0:18:07.080 there are twelve new songs. I think the math's riding 0:18:07.160 --> 0:18:10.040 that twelve thirteen new songs. Yeah, like I said, I 0:18:10.040 --> 0:18:14.600 think you have chickens at your house, I do, Thank 0:18:14.640 --> 0:18:18.840 you Delaney. She has eight chickens, eight and always had chickens. 0:18:18.880 --> 0:18:20.919 This is a new thing. She had chickens when she 0:18:21.040 --> 0:18:24.520 was a kid. Her mom had chickens, but um, you know, 0:18:24.520 --> 0:18:26.639 we had the garden going and the garden was popping, 0:18:27.280 --> 0:18:30.240 and she was like, I think I want chickens. Is 0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:34.000 there an egg like um overload at your house. There's 0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:36.480 about to be we have we have a lot of eggs, 0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:38.560 like we'd probably get eight a week now, but only 0:18:38.600 --> 0:18:41.680 one chickens laying. So it's about to be We're about 0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:43.639 to be the neighborhood plugs. Well know what it's like 0:18:43.680 --> 0:18:45.720 to have a bunch of chickens around. Growing up in Arkansas. 0:18:45.760 --> 0:18:47.520 When you have chickens, there's two there's just so many 0:18:47.520 --> 0:18:50.040 eggs are begging people to take eggs, yes constantly, Yeah 0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:51.879 you want some eggs, Hey you want some eggs? How 0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:53.840 about you need eggs? Yeah? So I never met you? 0:18:54.040 --> 0:18:58.840 So yeah, So you've been married for how long? Five 0:18:59.440 --> 0:19:02.920 five years? And your child is named after a very 0:19:02.920 --> 0:19:06.639 famous country music landmark here in town, the Ryman Auditorium, Right, 0:19:06.680 --> 0:19:10.359 young Ryman. Whenever you guys were discussing the name, whose 0:19:10.400 --> 0:19:13.600 idea was it and was there any pushed back at all? Um? 0:19:14.640 --> 0:19:17.640 Not really. My last name is Smith, so we had 0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:20.000 to get interesting on the first first half of it, 0:19:20.720 --> 0:19:22.760 and her last name being Royer, we were playing with 0:19:22.800 --> 0:19:28.000 different r names and Ryman a it's a great place. 0:19:28.040 --> 0:19:30.000 But I just think it's a Nashville staple and it 0:19:30.080 --> 0:19:33.840 speaks well and it has a holiness to it. So 0:19:33.920 --> 0:19:36.360 his full name is Ryman, Saint Smith. If you ever 0:19:36.400 --> 0:19:39.000 wanted to do this, he could just be Ryman's Saint. So, 0:19:39.200 --> 0:19:41.320
